We conceived a way to use my mother as a porn mule


Yesterday afternoon I found a random kid about 12 years old wandering around in our warehouse building. How he made it through the gates or through security at the front office I'll be damned. And of course he was playing Pokemon Go. I found him just as he caught one, he was so delighted and happily told me what he caught (I don't remember what it was).

Oh and an update from an incident at work a month or so ago - still a grand total of ZERO First Aid Kits purchased. The only one available is the one I personally bought and maintain.

I'd be wary of this, if the company's lawyers hear that about the first aid Kit they might try to hold you liable if someone has an incident and files for worker comp

I think working around the exposed shaft worries me more than the guy standing next to the (albeit insulated) 4160V stator circuit.

You're probably right, but I cannot in good conscious take it home incase it COULD help someone. It's the one I bought in protest of inadequate supplies after I was injured at work - big honking sign on it stating it's supplied by me because management will not.

When I clerked in a warehouse the production employees would leave the outer doors propped open in the summer to get a cross-breeze. One day a woman and her dog were just wandering through my warehouse. Needless to say I put a stop to that practice the next day.

What was annoying about the whole thing was that the warehouse was temperature-controlled and full of electronics, and they would open the doors while I was on my lunch break.

There was a software engineer at the same company who would always walk around barefoot, and I was constantly sweeping splinters off the floor from all the pallets. It's miraculous that he was never injured.

This is correct, it is protective cover, and that is actually a fridge. The cover is on to prevent someone from just smashing glass doors and taking whatever is inside. Jelen is a popular brand of beer in Serbia.

E: while it is quite common to have those covers on at night, I have no idea why two rightmost fridges don't have them, or why those two guys didn't go for one of them. Must really like that particular brand of beer over competition (rightmost one is Lav, another popular beer).

Beer vending machines? I'm surprised they aren't popular here in Australia. We're always on the lookout for ways to get more beer at all hours.

No, I already said it was a fridge. Though the idea of beer vending machines sound cool.

My bad. I guess my brain went ahead and ignored the word fridge and thought vending machines were a better thing.

What? Come on it's 100A at 30V. It's very entertaining but it's really not much.

When you've got 2000A busbars at 7200V, now that's power. :getin:
